    New Program Day 6: The Fear Matrix

    You can't apply your situation to anyone else's. Assuming you have been cleared by a doctor from tumors, cancer, infections, broken bones: The part that matters is - you have physical symptoms. Yet, nothing is damaged. We would stop our investigation as to "why" at that point. It clearly...

    Foot pain, TMS?

    Foot pain, TMS?

    Boy, so much to say here.... First, I was addicted to benzos for years. If you are wondering why no progress, start there. These are heavy and addictive tranquilizers DESPITE how "safe' your prescriber is saying they are. They are not. You say you have done all of this work but I must bring...

    Foot pain, TMS?

    You have already gone way beyond proving it is TMS. You've been to the podiatrist and others who are simply treating a symptom. Now you know it's not anything dangerous. Then Dr. MRI basically told you "I dont know." All of the others treating symptoms are doing this to appease you. This...

    New Program Day 4: Breaking the Pain Cycle

    Hi, I am a friend of Bill’s. TMS and addiction/alcoholism serve the same purpose. As you read more, investigate more, any 12 stepper will see this. I too had a meniscus tear “cleaned up.” The pain got worse. I’m pretty sure it’s because I began to accept the TMS diagnosis and was convinced I...

    New and in need of any help advice and guidance please

    Be careful with remarks like “some kind of real injury.” This infers that the pain felt by a person is not real. Or “just in their head.” She’s had the MRI. @Laurenisobow The MRI says you are free of damage, yes? For those of us with TMS this should be enough. Sometimes it’s not. I too have...

    Prostatitis vs. Enlarged Prostate: which is TMS?

    Thank you, I'll check it out. Regarding the hernia, I've had exam after exam including ultrasounds. Poked, prodded etc. No hernia. All checks out. I'm sure its tied to emotions from a particular time period. Thank you.

    Prostatitis vs. Enlarged Prostate: which is TMS?

    I am so glad I came across this one. I discovered this on my own after beginning TMS work. I used to get reports back at physical time that I had a 'slightly enlarged' prostate. I then noticed that the DR. no longer mentioned this. And I'm older! I was pretty sure that there was a...

    Anybody else have dry eyes?

    Everything you’ve said here is feeding into TMS. It’s all a focus on our “broken and weak body.” Which of course is false. They told me all of this garbage too. Out eyes have oils and whatever else for a reason. None of these things have helped me as again, it’s a focus on normal body...

    Steven Ozanich TMS and Pop Culture

    I first heard of Dr. Sarno in the late "90's as discussed on the Howard Stern radio show. This show is a daily, rolling discussion of pop culture with current events and artist interviews. Sarno cured Stern of his back pain and Stern also uses this technique when he feels his OCD creeping in...

    I don’t want to journal

    Doesn't sound sneaky at all. Sounds like a very conscience effort to avoid tough emotional work.

    Best book for person brand new to TMS

    "Mind Body Prescription." Dr. John Sarno. That's my pick. Then @Steve Ozanich 's "Great Pain Deception" for a first hand account and display of the hard work required. If you are looking for a quick fix however, it does not exist. This is work.

    Alan G. Online presentation for chronic pelvic pain

    These are non TMS related. They deal with physical therapy. At least the three I listened to did. So, more of the same focus on the body when it's the emotional work that needs to be done. @Alan Gordon LCSW , anyway to repost the vid referenced from 2015?

    Kristin B. Feel the Feelings, Feel the Pain?

    How to ignore the pain while feeling the feelings. I believe both to be necessary but I am unable to understand them as separates. I have made tons of progress with TMS working in not giving the pain power. Ignoring. But the long time pain (groin/pelvis) has been difficult so I’ve found a great...
